How has whole body vibration been studied in pain and physical performance?

790 papers: 454 randomized human studies, 101 comparative studies, 64 studies without a separate control group, 164 literature syntheses and 7 animal studies from 2024 onward.

Europe PMC MED and PMC title and abstract results were individually screened. Human studies have no lower publication year limit through 29 October 2026; animal and cell studies are limited to 2024 onward. Low back pain and single session or immediate postexercise measurements are grouped separately. Occupational and transport vibration, local vibration and studies confined to sarcopenia were excluded from this inventory. Studies measuring strength, electromyography, balance, gait or pain and systematic syntheses are included. Overall review samples may include interventions other than whole body vibration. Separate papers can report on the same study population. This is an abstract screened inventory, not a systematic review guaranteeing all relevant literature. Each group is ordered by first publication date, newest first.

Frequently asked questions

Who participated in the studies?

Participants included healthy adults, athletes, older adults and people with low back pain, knee osteoarthritis, stroke or cerebral palsy. Population and sample size are stated for each paper.

How are low back pain and immediate exercise measurements separated?

Low back pain studies have their own groups. Human studies measuring jump performance, strength, lactate or other variables after a single vibration session or exercise also have separate groups, with study design identified.

Which measurements and publication years are covered?

Measurements include pain questionnaires, strength tests, electromyography, jump and running tests, gait and balance tests. Human studies cover all publication years; animal and cell studies were screened from 2024 onward, with 7 animal studies included.
